Kudos to the B.C. Egg Marketing Board for labelling Wednesday's made-for-media event in down-town Vancouver - the unveiling of a life-size fire truck made from, of all odd things, egg cartons - as an exercise in "eggonomics."

When I was a child I had a rather lax approach to obedience and my family never tired of reminding me of the time I tried to persuade my sister to join me playing in a nearby creek by telling her “it’s OK, Mommy can’t see us.” Today’s child has no such latitude. Helicopter parents can simply strap a wearable device on junior that will report not only her location but even eavesdrop on her conversations.
